Meeting de Gaulle/Churchill, France, 13 November 1944

Hello everybody

I'm a writer, living in France. I write travel books, and this year completed a tour all around the coastline and territorial borders of France, learning about the people, customs and history of the places we visited. One of them was in the Doubs department of France, in a small town called Maiche. There is a chateau there called Montalembert, which is where de Gaulle and Churchill held a meeting on the eve of the grand offensive on Belfort and the Rhine.

I haven't been able to find any information as to why this particular location was chosen, nor any details of the meeting. If anybody knows anything that might be interesting, I'd be very grateful to hear about it, and will of course include credit in the book.

Susie
